“Finally Heard” is a culmination of research that brings to life the stories of six remarkable women during the American Civil War era: a Richmond socialite employs her former slave and childhood apprentice to spy on the Jefferson Davis household, an immigrant woman dons the persona of a man to fight in the war for employment, a small-time war merchant travels the battlefield to supply soldiers and a slave woman intimidates her owners to allow her freedom. The original script was written in 1997 by Angela D’Ambrosia, Sophie Arrick, Meg Coyle-Stanford, Gené Fouché, Rona Mensah and Wanda Schell.
